We did not lose the war in Vietnam; the
American Left did

Los Angeles, CA, 07-01-2016
Friday: Wow, it is hard to imagine that today is the
first day of July. We are on the second half
of the year now with the road headed downhill to December, New Year’s Eve and
Day celebrations and into 2017. I am
glad I am here at this time because I enjoy doing the blog once, sometimes
twice, a year.

If you live in California, then you
know that from south of San Francisco down to the Mexican border and eastward
to Nevada or Arizona, it gets hotter than HELL.
Currently, we are seeing high temperatures in the state and of course,
the warbling global warming birds cry out that ‘we on the verge of the hottest
summer in recorded history.’

I think it is great that we have an
opportunity to ‘make history,’ in whatever way possible with the exception of
President Obama surrendering to ISIS or the flipping Iranians nuking us before he
leaves office.

While this might sound a trifle
negative, I feel compelled to say that ‘I cannot wait for this self-serving,
America-hating president to leave the highest office of the land behind. I would rather have lived underneath eight
years of Joe Biden than this, despicable man who always finds fault with the
country a majority of the people (including the dead, illegal aliens, and
ex-convicts) elected him to lead. I
thought I had seen everything up until his ascension to office in January 2009
but I doubt ANY of us had seen a thing compared to this Saul Alinsky-loving
bum.’

I was born in 1941 so you figure out
my age and at the time I was old enough to recollect and to remember things, the
world was just coming out of a situation of worldwide conflict. By the time I hit age 10, war exploded in
Korea and once again, the United States found itself involved in a distant war
this time against communism.

As I recall, patriotism was
everywhere, no one ever expressed hatred for the United States but a feeling of
the purist love, of a desire to serve and do whatever it took to protect not
only our home front but that of our allies who at the time, were the South
Koreans.

No one looked forward to losing a
family member overseas but when it happened, we knew that the soldiers,
sailors, Marines, or fliers gave their lives for the founding principles of the
nation. They sacrificed them to protect
our way of life and they gave them to protect people whom they did not personally
know. They gave them and did so with a
spirit of being part of the greatest nation on Earth and that it was their
sacred duty to do so.

Then the conflict in Vietnam rolled
around. Like many, I received a request
from Uncle Sam to serve and remember at the time the fear and dread of heading
to the induction center to undergo the rigorous physical and mental tests. Standing in line naked as a jaybird with
nothing but a towel to cover my nakedness, I endured the prodding, the poking,
the opening of my mouth, the backend, and doing it in front of a thousand or
more other men as we all labored through the process.

Uncle Sam did not call me to serve
because I had asthma at the time and no one wanted someone wheezing and
coughing in the midst of nighttime jungle maneuvers so I felt spared but at the
same time guilty, too. I thought that I
was somehow guilty of not pushing
myself harder to make it through the
requirements to serve the nation in the military at the time. You have to remember that back in the
early-to-mid-1960s, the United States could and should have won the war but
already there were chinks showing within the armor of unity that once protected
and enveloped our nation.

The anti-war movement was vociferous
and it was growing as more and more Americans began to question the nation’s
involvement abroad in the affairs of people with whom we had nothing in
common. I blame the liberal, leftwing
movement then growing within the heartland for causing us to lose the war. Granted, I think that government and the
military also had a hand in the debacle that led to us fleeing from the rooftop
of the U.S. Embassy in Saigon. Here is
why:

The war became an experiment of
sorts, one in which, the military decided to forego the time-honored practice
of taking and holding enemy territory.
Instead, it elected to go with ‘body counts,’ saying that ‘the more we
compiled large numbers of enemy dead, the more successful we were in winning
the war.’ However, every time we took
ground, we vacated it not long after and the enemy, like water, rolled back in
when we rolled back out.

No matter how many North Vietnamese
we killed in action or in bombing runs over their cities and towns, they more
or less reproduced the lost numbers every year.
The United States, on the other hand, did not want to see rising body
counts of our own and the Tet Offensive of 1968—an uprising we won—drained the
willpower from the people to continue sending our sons and sometimes daughters
to die in a foreign war.

Oh, we can blame the leftwing
movements here on the home front such as the Yippies, the Weather Underground,
and other communist-run- or infiltrated organizations with sapping the will of
the Peace and Love generation to fight.
Hell, I even reconsidered my patriotism as I watched people I knew come
home maimed or in body bags because I felt that it was the government’s first
duty to win the war using whatever means it required to do so instead of
maintaining a meat grinder for its citizens.

After a while, one could easily
believe the leftwing propaganda that the rich and powerful within the nation,
including the industrialists and the crony capitalists who grew fat on
providing the tools of war at exorbitant costs, did so over the bodies of the
young, poor white people, blacks, Asians, Native Americans, and Latinos. If that were not the reason, then why did we
not do what it took to win the war as quickly as we should have instead of
farting around and bringing unnecessary death and misery home to mothers across
the land?

Up until the Vietnam War—and I call
it a ‘war’ because it was a ‘war’—the nation kept the left in check. During the course of the war, the leftwing of
America asserted itself with very little pushback. Between the constant protests, the nightly
news coverage, and the growing body counts, they crippled the nation’s resolve
and ability to win the war.

Richard M. Nixon urged the Vietnamese
to take over the course of the war (“Vietnamization” as he called it) so America
could withdraw but promised them ‘we would come to their aid should they need
it.’ However, the liberals and the
Democrats managed to drive Nixon from office by using phony, trumped-up charges
over the Watergate ‘cover up.’

Then, when President Gerald R. Ford,
his successor, received the call from the South Vietnamese to help them in
1975, he asked Congress to authorize the use of air power and other military
units to stiffen the backs of the overwhelmed government of SVN, the lawmakers balked and the South
fell.

This is WHY we now have a unified
Vietnam, one the communists stole from our grasp, one whom we abandoned to the
Fates along with the 55,000-plus Americans who died fighting to keep them free. For years, Vietnam veterans suffered public
abuse for their service abroad, service in which, I, too, should have taken
part if not for health reasons. There
are many times when I still feel regret for not having gone with my fellow
Americans to do the duty the Constitution demands of us but other times when I
am glad I did not.

The America we have today is the
product of the people who fought against the war instead of to win it. Most of the older members of Congress are
people as old as I am, from that era, who were awash in the politics of
insanity. Barack Obama might not have
been old enough to take part in or to have any memory of those times beyond the
leftist pabulum his mother and grandparents instilled within him but these
anti-war leftists sure as hell have schooled the 44th president.

What I said yesterday about a global
effort being necessary to keep the free nations of the world free is in danger
of dying on the vine thanks to the leftists running the show. Please, for Pete’s sake, do not allow the
liberal news media to fill your mind full of stories as to how Donald Trump is
not viable. Do not allow rightwing
losers such as Glenn Beck or some others to fill your mind with images of Trump
being a liberal Democrat in disguise. We
must win this election in November and Trump is the ONLY one who can put the nation
back to work. Are you with me, or are
you with the forces of devastation, destruction, and overthrow of the
Constitution?

For security purposes, this is an OLDER photo of me from back in the mid
1970's when I was working as a Food and Beverage
Director at a hotel in Fresno, California.
I later came to Washington State where I met Stinkbug in the WSCA. We
have been friends ever since.
